The signal of telecommunication is as V g1with control voltage V g2grid 140 and P+ grid 170 can be coupled to respectively.The signal of telecommunication also can use additional polysilicon layer (not shown) or metal level (not shown) to be coupled to N+ source electrode 130, N+ region 160, N+ region 162 and N+ drain electrode 180, and these layers use semiconductor fabrication techniques known in the art to be arranged at N+ source electrode 130, N+ region 160, N+ region 162 and N+ and drain on 180 respective surfaces.
